James Murphy joins LAFC

Such a shame, as Murphy was one of our better U-23 players. Certainly one who deserved chance to show what he can do at first team level. Did quite well this pre-season too.

 

Well, good luck to the lad, hope he makes it.

This would explain his recent absence from our U23s

I haven't seen any 'official' confirmation, so is the move a permanent one?

A loan?

Was there a fee/compo involved?

 

In all honesty he missed games for U-23's throughout the season. It seemed strange for me as he was a vital cog in midfield, and never heard anything about him been injured. Not sure if he made it known that he wanted to leave , but it would explain his lack of playing time for U-23 team.

He hasn't though

He's played in 18 of our U23s twenty-two games, the last one being pigs away on 5th Feb

I'd put his absence down to (perhaps) training with the 1st team

But it now seems like he was in LA

Warren Clarke hasn't played for U23s in last couple of games.  Is he injured?  Not heard any mention of him being brought into the first team squad and his contract is up.  If he is not going to get another its that time of the season when players start trialling with other clubs.

He was great in Daziel & Pascoe.

I believe that he is.

Good luck to him.  It'll be rough going for that squad, just getting off the ground.

 

Shaft Brewer notwithstanding.  Might be the greatest name I've ever read.

 

 

Dunno...this one takes some beating (so I've heard, ooerr)

Under contract to us and on loan to LA is how I read that. Did I get it wrong?

 

No, that's how I read it too

'Under contract' as opposed to formerly under contract

 

Maybe movement across the pond involving USA nationals differs from your standard loan agreements

 

cue OS announcement sometime today  :rolleyes:
